Registered summary

Periodontitis is a prevalent chronic inflammatory disease driven by a dysbiotic oral biofilm and a dysregulated host immune response. Standard non-surgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) is primarily mechanical and, in selected cases, may be accompanied by antiseptics or systemic antibiotics. Targeted modulation of the oral microbiome ("microbiome engineering") is currently not part of routine periodontal care due to limited high-quality evidence. The full summary is on the listing.

Registered summary

The CHLOR-DETOX study is a single-centre, double-blind, prospective, interventional, controlled, exploratory pilot study on subjects environmentally exposed to the organochlorine pesticide (kepone or chlordecone, CLD) in the French Caribbean (Martinique island). To our best knowledge, it is the first clinical trial in such subjects evaluating the potential effect of oral probiotic intake (Limosilactobacillus reuteri) on the reduction of CLD plasma levels (chlordeconemia) and fecal excretion, thus concurring to the reduction of CLD toxicity in study subjects.
